In this study, Josefine Wikstroem challenges a concept of
performance that makes no difference between art and non-art and
argues for a new concept. This book confronts and criticises the
way in which the dominating concept of performance has been used in
art theory and performance and dance studies. Through an analysis
of 1960s performance practices, Wikstroem focuses specifically on
task-dance and event-score practices and provides an examination of
the key philosophical concepts that are inseparable from such a
concept of art and are necessary for the reconstruction of a
critical concept of performance, such as "practice", "experience",
"object", "abstraction" and "structure". This book will be of great
interest to scholars, students and practitioners across dance,
performance art, aesthetics and art theory.
